Check out the 6 videos featuring Nate Kern. Estock sings the praises of Nates' abilities also.

Nate Kern is a class act. He told me that he wanted to ride Buells, but that they turned him down. So he went to BMW...the rest is history.

I was speaking to Nate not long ago. There is an FX Spec. BMW sitting in Germany right now. There is, apparently some 'backlash' from last years XBRR introduction and at this time, they don't have AMA permission to run the bike. Sucks don't it? He's racing Moto-ST and probably ASRA Thunderbike this year.

With any luck, someone will see the wisdom of letting BMW come out and play and be done with it!..

One clarification: Buell turned Nate down because we turn down all riders looking for factory rides. We told him to talk to some dealers, like everyone else, and gave hom some potential dealer names. He had a factory BMW ride, so he wasn't interested in a Buell dealer ride.

What if Buell provided top caliber riders? Might sweeten the pot for dealer teams to throw in their money...
